When he talks about how lifting his arm automatically cocks the left wrist, and lowering the arm automatically uncocks it....I can see that the motion of his arm as it is coming down is momentum build up from gravity. He also goes to the top and shows this same motion. I see how he stops the club before he passes the right leg....like the clubhead really is a weight. So I was thinking about that motion in my garage today and I saw a hammer. I grabbed it with my right hand, raised it with my forearm, then lowered it with my forearm. As the hammer was coming down I felt the heavy head really gain momentum and pull my whole arm. I stop it when my arm straightens out and it gives me the same feel that I see in the motion that he makes. Is this true throw out action ? __________________ "Golf is not a subject but a motor skill which can only be learned and not taught." - Michael Hebron "The Body, Arms and Hands have specific assignments during the Golf Stroke, and they must be coordinated into one efficient motion." - Lynn Blake KnighT View Public Profile Send a private message to KnighT Find all posts by KnighT
